Chapter 110 Grenadiers

The sentry rolled down the top of the fort and ran down in panic. Shouting: "Flare! red! The city wall on the east side."

Everyone's heart shrank suddenly.

According to the prior agreement, the red flare means that the front-line commander judges that the team encounters the enemy's magic battle strength.

"Let's go!" Major Moritz grabbed his helmet and got up and left, the lieutenants who were at a loss hurriedly followed behind.

Everyone quickly pulled the horses out of the Triangle Fort, moved towards the city wall on the east side and galloped away.

The sun has not yet appeared, but the sky has become brighter, showing a deep blue.

Sea fog began to appear in the air, and the smoke and sea fog on the battlefield superimposed, and the visibility dropped suddenly.

The drummer beat the war drums so hard that they seemed to beat people's chests. The shooters on and outside the city wall were shooting randomly in the direction of the moved towards the enemy, and the wounded soldiers who could walk stumbled out.

The scene was extremely chaotic. Major Moritz yelled "Go away" to drive away the soldiers in front of him, and his horses scurried through the front of his own side. The others followed the passage opened by the major. behind.

But the people who rushed to the east of the battlefield suddenly discovered that they had no idea where the flares were fired.

There are as many as three gaps in the east side of the city wall. Fighting is taking place everywhere, and the battle situation is starting to get out of control. The establishment of many Hundred Men Squads has collapsed, and officers will take soldiers wherever there is a cry of killing.

After going back and forth three times, they couldn't find the location, and the sorcerers became more and more restless.

Fortunately, another red flare exploded in the midair, and the riders moved towards the direction indicated. .

[The primordial flares used by the Veneta army will fly in midair and explode, not staying in the air for long. ]
When Moritz Squad arrived under the flare, the Veneta who had climbed the city first had been pushed back by the defenders.

The vanguard's organization has collapsed and is running out of the gap. However, the subsequent soldiers had not yet received the enemy, and used brute force to squeeze into the gap.

One group of people wanted to run out, the other group wanted to squeeze in, and the gap was blocked for a while, and both groups were unable to move even a little bit.

The Veneta who fell accidentally was trampled by everyone and screamed. The defenders in the city were chasing after them all the way, and they would be killed by the chasing soldiers without waiting for the defeated soldiers to escape.

The city walls on both sides of the gap were reoccupied by the Tanirians, and there were more and more defenders at the front of the city. Tower people.

The bullets flew, the smoke filled the air, and the cries and screams were endless.

In the chaos of the army, because the officers all changed into soldiers' armors today, the sorcerers could not find the commander on site for a while.

until they heard a furious voice roaring: "[Angry swearing]! Don't bully here! Spread left and right! Let them out first! Seventh Hundred Men Squad! Spread left and right! Left and right! Scatter!"

Without the blessing of magic, the roar actually overwhelmed the noise of the battlefield.

The soldiers who were trying to squeeze in were stunned for a moment, and then really began to spread out to the left and right sides of the gap, obviously these soldiers were very familiar with the voice of the Hundred-Men Commander who commanded them.

"The siege ladder! On the city wall!" the voice of the Hundred-Men Commander continued to roar.

The soldiers had to pick up the toppled cloud ladder from the ground. The Veneta siege ladder was re-built on the city wall, and the sword and shield hand climbed up to the city on both sides of the gap. Wall and the defenders fought, and the guns on the wall immediately misfired.

Moritz found the Hundred-Men Commander among the soldiers at a glance. He led the sorcerer squad through the chaotic crowd, grabbed the arm of the Hundred-Men Commander, and asked loudly: "Huh? Ann! Did you fire the flare?"

The situation was critical, and Lieutenant Juan, who was in command, was immediately furious when a soldier grabbed his arm and called him his surname.

As soon as he scolded his lips, Juan recognized that the man in the soldier's uniform in front of him was Major Moritz.

The vulgar words were forcibly swallowed again, and Don Juan shook off the major's hand and asked impatiently, "What did you say?"

"Flare!" Morrie Ci pointed to the sky: "Did you send it?"

"What signal flare? I didn't fire it!" Lieutenant Hu An quickly denied it, and turned to go to the gap in the city wall.

Moritz grabbed Juan's arm again and continued to ask: "Where is your Great Captain?"

"I don't know! I don't know where it is. ?" Don Juan activated the True Fire, and regardless of the fact that the major in front of him was Level 3 higher than him, Fiercely broke free from Moritz's control.

Behind the smoke came the thunderous cry of the Tanirians, as the defenders cheered to retake the breach. The Veneta were driven from the city wall, scrambling and escaping the road given by Juan Hundred Men Squad.

Hearing the cheers of the Tanee, Don Juan realized that the breakthrough mouth had changed hands.

He threw his saber on the ground with his backhand, and angrily roared: "Grenade!"

A dozen tall and stocky soldiers heard the order and quickly gathered around Don Juan. around.

Lieutenant Juan took an iron ball in a noose from one of the soldiers, and the other soldiers took the same thing out of their backpacks.

Winters recognized what Brother Hu Senior An was holding. It didn't have an official name, but it was called by many: bomb, grenade, bomb... whatever the user wanted.

But whatever you call it, it's an extraordinarily dangerous weapon. Not only for the enemy, but even more so for the user.

"Prepare!"

The soldier on the side lit the lead of the iron bomb in Lieutenant Juan's hand, Don Juan took a deep breath, grabbed the rope and swung the iron bomb above his head up.

Si si The burning iron bombs are pulled by ropes in a loop, making a gust of wind, which is extremely terrifying.

"Throw!" Lieutenant Juan shouted and let go of his hand, the bomb flew along the tangential direction, with hemp rope to the gap in the city wall.

Other grenadiers followed the Hundred-Men Commander, sending a dozen iron shells flying into the smoke.

Limited by the level of casting technology, the lightest throwing bombs equipped by the Veneta Army also weigh four pounds, which cannot be used by those who are not physically strong, so the grenadiers are carefully selected brawny men.

But even these elite warriors have to use this sling-like noose to drop heavy iron bombs far away.

Carrying such a bomb that doesn't know when it will self-destruct itself is terrifying enough [note: people of this age don't understand static electricity].

The throwing method of "threw away" is even more dangerous. Not only can you not stand by your side, but if you miss the bomb, it may fall into your own queue.

Therefore, this weapon is simply used by few people, and even less dare to use it. It is too dangerous. However, in shoulder-to-shoulder, face-to-face siege battles, its lethality is also amazing.

Continuous explosions came from behind the smoke, and the cheers of the Tanirians could no longer be heard, only screams and moans that did not resemble human voices.

"Go on! Don't stop! Use up all the grenades!" Juan's shouted woke the soldiers who were stunned in place. The grenadiers took out new iron bombs from their backpacks and moved towards the city wall Gap cast.

The Moritz squid froze here, and the loud noise forced Captain Lello to stick to Major Moritz's ear and asked loudly, "Sir! What are we going to do?"

"Wait!"

In front of Winters, a grenadier was colliding with flints with trembling hands, but he couldn't ignite the lead anyway.

This grenadier failed to follow Don Juan in the first round throw, and now that the other soldiers have thrown at least three times, he still hasn't lit the lead of the first bomb.

"Give it to me!" Winters couldn't bear it, and didn't want to see the panicked grenadier throw bombs on his own.

The panicked grenadier looked half bewildered, half grateful, as Winters took the iron bomb from his hand.

Winters lit the fuze directly with a fire spell, then threw the bomb behind the gap in the city wall like a shot put. Because of the lack of practice, Winters did not dare to use the "sling" to drop the bomb, but simply dropped the bomb like a shot put. Fortunately, he has a good foundation, and the throwing distance in this way is not bad.

Seeing the person in front of him ignited the lead with a gesture, the panicked grenadier froze in place.

The bomb-dropping Winters scolded him, "What are you standing there for? Give me another!"

The grenadier hurriedly took out another bomb, and Winters repeated Repeat the previous operation.

Juan had each of his grenadiers carry six spares, and so on, Winters, three rounds behind, ran out of bombs before the rest of the grenadiers.

"It would be great if it only weighed a pound." Winters wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, "Even if it weighs two pounds, it won't be so troublesome to use."

p>

He suddenly noticed that Lieutenant Juan, who had dropped six rounds of bombs, gave himself a deep look. Looking at each other, Huan nodded to his little Junior Brother, turned around and shouted: "The flag!"

The flag-bearer quickly took out the flag and hung it on a lance Handed over to the Hundred-Men Commander.

Lieutenant Juan held the Golden Lion flag high, and shouted: "Follow the flag! Attack! Follow the flag! Attack!"

Seeing this scene, even the heartbroken soldiers will feel guilty. Many of the Veneta who had routed out of the breach also recovered their weapons and followed Juan Hundred Men Squad into the city wall.

Obvious armor is given to officers not for aesthetics, but for timid friendly soldiers to clearly see their commander beside them.

Although it can reduce the magician's destructive power, it also damages the will of the Veneta army
Lieutenant Juan raised the flag to let all the soldiers know about him Not taking a step back, but at the same time making him a target.

"Major, what are we going to do?" Lailo couldn't help asking again.

"Follow Don Juan!" Moritz drew his saber and strode to keep up: "If there's a magician hidden in the Tanirians, Don Juan is the most obvious target! ”

The earliest recorded use of flares was in the Mongolian army in the 13th century, the first use of grenadiers as an independent arm was in the 17th century, and iron bombs appeared earlier. However, the ones that appear in the article can be considered as early models, which are not yet mature.

It's not finished yet, but it's better to break it out of context here.
